  1. I have one of these https://mitox.co.uk/index.php/products/mitox-28pp-pole-pruner.html .Its a nice design but could do with a bit more HP , its very easy to start , chain comes loose and needs resetting a bit more than I would like mostly due to a lack of power. Less than half the money of a Husky & Stihl. Always depends on how much work one has to justify the outlay .
  2. What is the opinion on these .https://www.frjonesandson.co.uk/products/mitox-28pp-telescopic-pole-pruner-10-bar-25-4cc/ £516.67 for a Husky , £182.50 for the Mitox . Need one for occasional use on a farm .
  3. Thanks , I will do as you suggest.
  4. 638 , I must confess I have had the bottle for a number of years , which could be the problem. https://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?products_id=340258&vat_inc=true&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI86K-jval1wIVKDPTCh3g_QNwEAQYBSABEgIsg_D_BwE
  5. The 2 bolts holding the exhaust muffler to the engine keep rattling lose despite using Loctite . Any suggestions & ideas ,as its becoming a real pain . . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HUSQVARNA-61-268-272-362-365-371-372-385-390-EXHAUST-MUFFLER-BOLTS-X-2-NEW/281164134302?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649 The bolts are HT M5 20 mm long ,am I correct believing they are 0.8 thread, I can by a pack of 10 for less money than the above link
  6. Most bracken is on steep ground , very rare to have land running to hundreds of acres that one could use big heavy equipment . Would not knock the end product though , although if one cut annually the crop would get less each year , not sure how they could get enough supply .
  7. Would the good People of this Forum please sign this petition to hopefully avoid a serious Aircraft accidents that could be even worse than Lockerbie. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/122039 It might be your plane while going on holiday.
  8. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDXQYko2LFY[/ame] Oops
  9. A hurdle yes ,insurmountable no but everything has price.
  10. Silly me I had forgotten they make batteries out of wood & water , none of which needs to be extracted from the ground the other side of the globe
  11. I have to agree ,one way or another we need energy .The only way we will know what is the real truth is if we is to get on with a few and see what happens. As for Fracking under National parks ,is that more risk than populated areas I think not. And why should they be treated differently to smaller areas of equal beauty non national parks areas. The fact is there are too many people !!! and there is no easy fix .
  12. For the sake of balance Fraudster in £600k scam uses Jeremy Corbyn's support in bid to avoid jail over Christmas - Mirror Online He`s probably been lazy in not doing some research ,which is typical of nearly all MP`s.
  13. I am not a fan of Boris but here he talks very well. [ame] [/ame] And Boris is bang on here in saying, this is the exact reaction that the architect`s of this terror want. Trump the syrup wearing heavy duty publiciser uses London as an example when there is so much more problems on his own 'Apple pie and cream' doorstep. Massacres seem to happen monthly in the US and this is the first carried out by people who are Musslim .
  14. Reco Kioti Mechron - Reco Products | Mike Pryce Machinery Might be worth a view.
  15. Thanks for the advise gives me some hope that its worth repairing .
  16. I reckon the engine might get nicked.

    Jokes???

    An Amish couple was standing in the kitchen one morning when the wife says to her husband "You need to look at the toilet its broken and needs to be fixed" The husband said, "There's nothing wrong with the toilet." The wife said, "I'm not going to make breakfast until you go look at it." So he goes to the out house swings the door open and looks inside. He yells back up to the house, "I don't see any problems with the toilet!" His wife yells back, "Look in the hole!" So, he looks in the hole and yells up to the house, "I don't see anything wrong with the toilet!" His wife yells back, "No, you have take your hat off and stick your head in the hole!" He yelled back, "I'm not sticking my head in the hole!" She yelled back, "I'm not making breakfast!" Reluctantly he takes off his hat and sticks his head in the hole. He doesn't see any problems with the toilet. When he tries to pull his head out to tell his wife his beard gets stuck in the cracks of the toilet seat. He screams in pain, "Martha come quick! My beard got stuck in the cracks of the seat!" His wife yells down to him, "Hurts don't it!"
  19.

  20. And the reverend Tony put everything right.
  21. Weatherweb TV If admin on this site ask the man himself Simon Keeling he will post regular bulletins , all he asks in return is when you watch the videos that you click on the adverts just as to generate enough revenue to keep it free of charge. The big difference with Simon`s weather forecasts are that it covers the wider possibilities of what could happen and give simple explanations of what is going on across the globe and how it affects us in the UK.

    Jokes???

    Farmer Joe decided his injuries from his recent accident were serious enough to take the trucking company responsible for the accident to court. In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning farmer Joe. "Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, that you were fine?" ''Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie into the--" ''I didn't ask for any details,'' the lawyer interrupted. ''Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, that you were fine?" ''Well I had just got Bessie into the trailer and was driving down the road--'' ''Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question.'' By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's answer and told the lawyer so. ''Well," said the farmer, "as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ol' Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came across the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me. He said, 'Your mule was in such bad shape I had to shoot her. How are you feeling Sir?'
